auto-generated crash report summary: indicator-sound-service crashed with SIGSEGV in xcb_setup_vendor_end()

Ubuntu 10.10 beta is installed as the guest OS in virtualbox 3.2.8 on OS X 10.6 host. I was installing the VirtualBox guest tools and it turned the x screen into ascii-art... switched to a virtual console and did a killall -9 gnome-session.
